Discover More About the Beauty of Temples

In the temple, we are able to come closer to Heavenly Father and make sacred promises with Him. We learn more about God’s plan for us and how Jesus Christ is central to that plan. There are over 300 temples worldwide that are either announced, in their construction phase, or operational. Each of them looks different on the outside and inside. However, in every single temple, there are the same 4 main rooms. The baptistry, instruction room, celestial room, and sealing room. In this tour, you are able to learn more about what happens inside these rooms as well as the blessings God has in store for us. Guests are also able to walk around the outside of the temple grounds and the rooftop garden. This tour is used to help explain the symbolism as well as the history, architecture, and miracles of the temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
